What WOULD we do without WOOD?

WOOD, to celebrate



WOOD, to honor


WOOD, to last


                                                                  
                                                                     to shelter   




                                                                     to protect


to love


                                                                         to share


                                                                  to withstand weather


                                                                    for 'reflections'


                                                                   'warming us'


                                                                   to carry us


                                                                     for creating


                                          
                                                                  comfort and beauty



                                                 for latillas, a rainbow ceiling for dreaming 


                                                         WOOD...to ponder



                                                    
                                                       to remind, represent

    A beautiful collection, funny, my favorite image is of the wood stack! Maybe because I feel secure with a full shed, but that is a very satisfying image!

    The heart in the middle of one of the pieces of wood in the woodpile ... what a great series of images.

    Beautiful. All the ways trees meet our human hands. Or shelter us. I recognize the dovecote, the portillo, the wood pile outside the Mable Dodge house where I've spent some lovely days. All a gift. Thank you.

    the heart in the center of the log is so amazing! Such a lovely thoughtful post...so often people forget the gifts of trees and how we must tend to them, as they tend to us too.
